Wheeeeeeee

First long ride on the new bike.... I still love it! 45 miles, out to Old Buckenham, a cup of tea and some toast and marmalade at the cafe (no cake - booo), then round via Shropham and Great Ellingham, Morley and Wymondham to Little Melton, then home. No cramp - phew. Times:

Home - Old Buckenham, 17.7 miles, 1h08 = 15.6mph average (headwind all the way)
Old Buckenham - Little Melton, 23.4 miles, 1h22 = 17.1mph
Little Melton - home, 4.6 miles, 19 minutes = 14.5mph

Max speed 25mph, max on the flat about 22.5mph (but only after halfway when the wind was behind me!).
